And looks like VP-200 should be on the list below as the main bus.   I am planning on one when I get to the panel.  I'd be curious as to your opinions both on the install and first flight of the VP-200.

I would highly recommend the VP-200.  Installation is very nice as the big red box has all of the wires for each circuit.  You simply program each wire for the type of device and expected load.  The device is named accordingly, for example "Strobes", and shows up on the main LCD display.  

Operationally, each mode of flight, for example "Taxi, Run Up, Takeoff, Cruse, Landing, etc.) is programmed into the VP-200.  You specify which devices you want on and off during each mode of flight.  The VP-200 can automatically detect each mode of flight and will automatically switch on/off the devices for the given mode of flight as you have preprogrammed them.   You can at anytime manually override the automatic setting of a given circuit if necessary.

Basically, you turn the VP-200 on, and fly the plane.  All of your electrical needs are handled automatically.

Factory support has be excellent.

I wouldn't build another airplane without a Vertical Power electrical system.
